How is the CO2 Laser Treatment Done?

Patients who decide to undergo the CO2 laser treatment will get a personalized treatment plan created by Dr. Vinas. Depending on your skin type and desired results, patients may need to undergo multiple laser treatments. Prior to the treatment, the skin will be prepped for the laser and a topical numbing cream will be applied for comfort. The laser will be run over the treatment area, which will heat and shrink the skin tissue to improve the laxity. As this is happening, the laser will promote the peeling of dead skin cells from the outer layer of skin. The CO2 laser treatment helps to promote the production of collagen in the skin for improved hydration and elasticity. This leaves a smoother, radiant complexion that patients can see immediately.

Recovery from CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing

Patients will receive complete instructions for pre-treatment and post-treatment care. There is minimal downtime associated with the CO2 laser skin treatment, some patients experience minor side effects that reflect a sunburn. To make sure that your skin heals properly, it is important to avoid direct sunlight or excessive heat following the treatment. After about two weeks, most patients suffer no more side effects from the treatment and can begin enjoying their smoother, firmer, younger-looking skin.
